Looks like modeling certainly was overestimating dry air effect, and way underestimated rainfall totals because of that potentially. I started to get a bad feeling yesterday afternoon that we may see a lot more rain than was being forecast when radar was filling in, and that training line was setting up. Looking at the latest mesoscale models like the HRRR, and the NAM there is still a lot of rain potentially on the table as this moves closer to the Houston area later today/tonight. Feast or Famine as always it seems.. I hope all of our TBH brothers & Sisters are high and dry.
I am right there with you brother. Our house is on Lampasas and we had about a foot of water in the garage yesterday. Looks like we will be cleaning up on Sat.
Water came back up last night, but it's down again. Should be done..
I'm heading down this evening to open garage doors and turn on fans.
We've got about 7 here in West Houston. Thankfully, not much of Harvey style down pours and there's been a few breaks between the heavier showers, which has helped with street flooding.
Going to be interesting to see how this evening and tonight goes. Narrow, but nasty looking band setting up on a Seabrook - Pasadena - Houston - Cypress line. With as saturated as everything is it won't take much to start seeing more flooding problems. Everyone stay safe, and off the roads tonight if possible!
